How can a notebook have the i5-6600k?

It depends on the specifics of the laptop.

A desktop CPU in a laptop typically means you can also upgrade it in future.... buying some extra time with it.
It doesn't guarantee the cooling solution is sufficient though, so it can be problematic.

For me; no. I can't think of any situation where a desktop CPU would be "worth it".
If you want a laptop, typically, you want portability and some battery life.
If you want desktop-class components (outside of a GPU in 2018 anyway), a desktop is the way to go.

A laptop processor will typically operating the in <40W range at load.... potentially lower.
A desktop CPU, like the 6600K is a 91W part.

You'd be dramatically impacting battery life (negatively), negating the only real...
Clevo are an ODM. They design laptops (probably other things too), and sell them themselves + sell them to vendors to be rebadged.

Desktop class CPUs have been available in bespoke laptops for years, but the required cooling tends to results in either a bulky laptop, sufficient to cool the chip.... or a pretty hot running laptop.

I see and would it be a good idea to buy a laptop with a desktop cpu?

I see thanks and have you had any experience with Clevo notebooks? Are they resilient good quality? How good are they compared to the famous marks ie Asus, Hp, ect?
